Request info on Reference letter for work exp. & Funds proof

Dear Members,

I have continuous work experience in one of the NOC codes for only last 3 years out of a total 4 years. Rest of the work experience that i have is not available in any of the NOC codes.

Q. Should I only show the work experience that is applicable in one of the NOC & leave out the rest ? If yes, then will the CIC ask me about what I was doing during the gap .. i have total 4+ years of work experience. Will this go against my profile.

Q. The reference letters are one of the difficult things to get. I have seen the standard formats. Can someone who has already receiver the PR, please share the format they shared the reference letter in so that we can get it in that way.

Q. If i was not working for 5-6 months due to certain reasons, nor was I studying, will i have to give explanation & proof for those months that i was not doing anything. If yes, where & when will they ask me. i do not see any place where they have requested for such info in the forms. I do not want to be surprised at a rejection just becuz i did not know what to provide where :)

Q. Can someone please guide on the FUnds proof. My father is ready to provide the money to me as a gift. Will the CIC ask my proofs as to where my dad got that money. Or if Dad transfers the money to my account & says its a gift, that should suffice & CIC will not look into where my dad go the money from :)

Q. If I get an ITA & I apply with all the docs, I will also have to pay some about as cost of recovery. I know if they reject my application for incomplete documentation, they will refund the money. But please let me know if it goes for processing, what are the reasons that they can refuse my request since if the e-APR goes into processing, I will not be able get any refund if they reject my profile.

Sorry for asking so many questions but its a huge step i am taking & i would really need help of all other members if the forum.

Thank You & hoping for some responses !!

You can show the experience that you want to claim the points for. You won't be penalized for not showing more than minimum required work experience. But make sure you have all documents to back up the work experience you declare in EE profile

Q. The reference letters are one of the difficult things to get. I have seen the standard formats. Can someone who has already receiver the PR, please share the format they shared the reference letter in so that we can get it in that way.

Not got PR yet. But each company has its own format. Make sure you get it on company letter head, signed by HR manager, include your duties, start and end date, full time/part time. If possible attach business card of your manager

Q. If i was not working for 5-6 months due to certain reasons, nor was I studying, will i have to give explanation & proof for those months that i was not doing anything. If yes, where & when will they ask me. i do not see any place where they have requested for such info in the forms. I do not want to be surprised at a rejection just becuz i did not know what to provide where :)

When you fill PR application after ITA, you are asked to declare activities for the last 10 years. There you will have to show something, you can say you were looking for job or waiting for joining etc. You are not asked to back that gap with any proof.

Q. Can someone please guide on the FUnds proof. My father is ready to provide the money to me as a gift. Will the CIC ask my proofs as to where my dad got that money. Or if Dad transfers the money to my account & says its a gift, that should suffice & CIC will not look into where my dad go the money from :)

Yes. Get a letter from dad saying the money is a gift to you, will stay with you forever and you are not obliged to return. Also add details of transfer including your dad's account debit and your account credit and bank statements. You should do all this while submitting PR application and not wait for CIC to ask you.

Q. If I get an ITA & I apply with all the docs, I will also have to pay some about as cost of recovery. I know if they reject my application for incomplete documentation, they will refund the money. But please let me know if it goes for processing, what are the reasons that they can refuse my request since if the e-APR goes into processing, I will not be able get any refund if they reject my profile.

check this for reasons of rejection - http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/reasons-for-rejection-t306713.0.html

I created my profile some 12 hours ago. Created the job bank account as well. While the latter has become active and I'm getting job match results as well, the Express Entry 'Application/Profile Status' is still 'Pending Additional Criteria'. How long does it take for the profile to become 'open'? Is it normal or am I missing something?

Once you create your profile, you receive a message from CIC in your myCIC. Read it carefully. It has all the details you'll need to create a Job Bank account.

Ignore the ineligible profile - it doesn't matter now. Only the eligible profile matters.

Create the job bank profile here ---> https://seeker.jobbank.gc.ca/seeker/

I had a similar problem. I mistakenly entered my husband's passport number for hist IELTS report form and later when I updated it, it didn't update. I noticed it after receiving the ITA and it was too late.
It seems that updating an application doesn't really take effect that good in some cases.
I advise you to create a new profile from the scratch. This will prevent any sirt of further complications.
Thanx
